3 rob Zombie Living Dead Girl(hellBilly Deluxe, 1998)

-

While the song itself is a veritable smorgasbor­d of horror references, including nods to Lady Frankenste­in (1971), Daughters Of Darkness (1971) and The Last House On The Left (1972), it’s perhaps the video for the track that features the most obvious tribute, coming straight from the showreel of one of cinema’s first horror masterpiec­es, 1920’s The Cabinet Of Dr Caligari. rob himself is cast as the titular Doctor, alongside wife and frequent collaborat­or Sheri Moon Zombie in the role of the living Dead Girl in a gloriously daft, black and white ode to horror’s earliest days.

CHOICE LYRIC: “Crawl on me / Sink into me / Die for me / Living dead girl”
